Connecting: Solo Travel Network is a Canadian-based international membership organization that publishes a bimonthly travel newsletter with trip offers and classified advertisements for travel companions. Fifty percent of members are older than 50, so travel information for mature singles is one of the group's priorities.
Tours featured in the newsletter must be offered with either no single supplement, the extra fee charged to travelers on their own, or a very low supplement. A regularly updated Singles Tours and Getaways Calendar includes tours, cruises, travel clubs, hospitality organizations and other singles-friendly travel suggestions. Travel opportunities range from cruises, cultural tours and jazz festivals to African safaris and camping trips in U.S. national parks.
